You already capture videos. You already take pictures. You have been doing it for years, on your phone, several times a day, whether anyone asked you to or not.

And most of it could look much better. Not because you lack talent. Because nobody told you about the light, or the frame, or why that shot of your food looks the way it does. And how video clips can be captured and edited to tell a more engaging story with clarity.

This workshop exists to fix that. A few basics, a little awareness, and the world through your lens starts to look so much better.

Everyone - anyone who enjoys capturing photographs and videos using their smartphones.
